What I'm looking for

I seek a Senior engineering role where I can design cloud-native microservices, improve developer experience, mentor teams, and deliver measurable reliability and performance gains.

I am a Senior Software Engineer with over 5 years of experience designing scalable microservices and web applications, specializing in Java SE & EE and AWS services. I focus on building reliable, performant APIs and cloud-native systems that reduce operational friction and improve developer experience.

At Jumppace I led backend development, authored RESTful API standards, and automated API key provisioning to reduce onboarding time by 30%. I built a serverless address validation service that cut undeliverable domestic addresses by 93% and improved shipment update accuracy by 30%, while introducing event-driven processing and idempotent webhooks.

I mentor junior engineers and promote Agile practices, with a history of tuning performance (MySQL, Redis), building GraphQL services, containerizing applications, and implementing robust CI/CD pipelines. I seek roles where I can continue to architect resilient systems, improve developer DX, and drive measurable operational improvements.
